FourWillowsWeeping/Stunts

Stunts

Okay, so, stunts are cool in a subtle way; they structure the interaction of players in a thoughtful manner. But they're not thoughtful enough.

Here is my new stunt system!

You can get 1 die for describing something cool. It doesn't have to be an action of your character! You could be doing something totally mundane, but if you bother describing it in a way that makes the game more interesting, then you get a stunt. Note that you are not the authority on "more interesting."

You also get 1 die for interacting with something another player contributed. Like, if your ST says, "You're fighting in a bamboo forest," then you can get a stunt die for interacting with the bamboo. You get this even if you didn't describe it in a cool way, but again, you're not the authority on "interacting," although I don't think that there are many cases where this could sensibly be in honest dispute. Or, if another character yells, "Duck!" then you can get a stunt die for obediently ducking. This bonus stacks when you're interacting with elements introduced by multiple players.

The maximum number of dice you get per stunt is still 3. You get moteFourWillowsWeeping/Willpower rewards regardless of the success of the stunt.
